That was the penny dropping.
Thank you
I knew it wasn't just a bit of wire but I felt "a bit of wire sticking out the side of the nose" described it.
That makes sense.

Nice piece. I have a original Ketland & Co lock it has a roller on the bearing part of he M' spring .I used it to wed to an old Alonzo Martinez Spanish Barrel had The' And Co' style is late 18 into early 19th but though the stocking style is old fashioned so too where many customers . Ketlands locks take some beating they are great geometry .
